The Devil Wears Suits

July 11, 2007

Yes, he does. You won’t know it if you saw him but the devil actually wears suits. He comes to you looking like a very cultured and friendly guy but he is not. Why? I will tell you why. Because he is the devil. Their purpose in life is to cheat you of all your hard-earned money and leave you penniless (and even homeless) without a second thought. I read from the newspapers about these people who goes to old folk’s homes and try to con them of their money. They are dressed smartly (with their well-ironed shirts) and they are very convincing but beware of these con artists. And since the older generation is probably not as worldly as you guys, you should inform and warn your parents or grandparents about these people.

Oh, another breed of devils are those salesman you see along Orchard Road. You know, those trying to sell you digital cameras or mobile phones by claiming that they have the lowest price available and try to smooth-talk you into believing them. They make a lot of ridiculous claims about the product they are selling, with features that are actually not supported by the product. Well, it’s my opinion you should always do some research first before buying anything, especially electronic gadgets.

How about those devils selling you insurance or some unknown mutual funds thingy that gives you millions of dollars in return? They tell you tons of jargons and use big words to “shock and awe” you and the truth is, it is never as good as it looks. And you should never sign on the dotted line on the spot. Take any documents back and check everything carefully before you commit.   

These devils in suits will never be honest. They are too busy spit-polishing their horns to be honest anyway. Beware beware! It would be best for you to run away screaming when you see someone dressed in a suit and a crooked smile walking towards you.

If you have been following this blog for sometime, you will realize that I had added advertisements (that is Google Adsense) before. But after changing the theme of the blog (from the default them to this one), the adsense module was removed. Well, now I have added the adsense back into the blog. This is in the hopes of me getting millions of dollars from Google. I have heard that Google will be making billions or zillions of dollars in profits again this year, so why not get a little piece of that pie? I am not being greedy or anything, let’s say 5% of Google’s profits? Sounds very fair to me.

Anyway, the advertisements are all not prominent. You will see an advertisement at the bottom of the first post and if you are reading the actual blog post itself, it will be also at the bottom. Hope that it will not be distracting to you. Anyway, I read about this Adsense Deluxe Plugin for Wordpress which will add the adsense block in the blog post itself, but I am afraid that it will be way too distracting. I also tried to match the advertisement to the blog theme so it won’t be that obvious to readers. I don’t want this blog to become like an advertising blog or those stupid MFA (Made For Adsense) blogs you see everyday on the Internet. I detest those sites. They spolit the image of blogs. In fact, they spolit the image of the entire Internet.

Okay, I will be awaiting the dough coming in from Google real soon. And once I have received the cheque from Google, I will go and get myself a castle or a villa in France or Switzerland. If you don’t see me posting anymore, you know where to find me. Wait, don’t bother me. I will be relaxing somewhere in Europe. For the time being, if you have anything to say about the advertisement (like making it pink or cute) or the blog in general, please comment here.
